Interesting that Paul is staking out the Republican-loyalty position while
Trump is staking out the non-allegiance-to-GOP position. On this point,
Trump is decidedly more libertarian than Rand Paul.

Being defeatist about alternative parties is outdated, not to mention
highly dangerous, especially when the result is endorsing people like
Romney and McConnell. You can't get much more pro-Big Government than that.

Public sentiment against Ds and Rs - and for third parties/independents -
has swung significantly since his dad's run as the LP POTUS candidate in
1988. Someone needs to point out to Rand (or to his target audience) that
that was then and this is now.
